Question

Question 2 (2 points) Why does the realm of 'the absent' present a difficulty for robotics, according to Clark? The capacity to coordinate action despite physical connection requires internal representations If responses are coordinated based on the immediate environment, one might worry that systems which are not "representation hungry" enough might fail to be able to handle cases that are physically absent. When we abstract away from typical or individual examples, it is hard to build a system that knows how to handle the abstract.

Explanation / Answer

According to Clark mind is a software that can be run on many types of software. This is calls the extended mind. He believes that mind can be built by mind-machine combinations, apart from the biological tissue of which it is really made of.
